I bet if baseball had pitch clocks 20 years ago fan bases would be so much better/bigger.

But with faster pitch counts it's like faster paint drying.

Two bad hitting teams that is for sure. I really thought we would
Score a Few runs.

Tigers 8

(Sears gets first batter in the 8th. His longest Career outing)

Haase 0-1, 0-2, 1-2 k?s. Like we didn?t see that coming.
Short. 0-1 singles.
Pitching change .
Vierling 0-1, 1-1, foul 1-2 count pop single to RF
Runners at 1st and 3rd one out
Spencer T foul 0-1, 1-1, foul 1-2 count, foul, 2-2 count k?s. ( Just needed a sac fly and could deliver)
pH Carpenter 1-0, 1-1, 2-1, 2-2, 3-2 count BB looked like a pitch around to me.
Baez 1-0, foul 1-1, foul 1-2? k?s looking on low Pitch to close to take.




This team with runners on 3rd and less then 2 outs is worst I have seen.
Spencer had such poor at bat. Just needed a sac fly and he can?t deliver.

 

[Mitchrapp]

This is what baseball does. SP gives up a hit and gets taken out after a brilliantly pitched game at only 90 pitches. Serves them right if Detroit wins this..

 

[Mitchrapp]

That was heck of a pitch.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Fooled fooled, fool.

A?s 9th

K?s
F-7
2-2 count, 3-2 count K?s

I?d really like to see Olson get the win. He was fantastic.

Tigers 9th

Rogers 0-1, 0-2, 1-2 count, strikeout
Ph mckinstry 0-1, 1-1, 2-1 count, 2-2 count. K?s on a pitch off the plate.
Miggy 0-1, 0-2 K?s


10th coming
Why do I get the feeling the A ?s are better equipped ar small ball them the tigers are. Hope not.

 

[biggunsbob]

A?s 10th
Holton in.
Runner on second

Sac but runner to third. 1 out .
0-1, 1-1, 1-2 count. Strikeout. 2 outs.
1-0 count , 1-1 count. Lousy pitch single why throw a fastball middle middle. Get him to chase. Terrible pitch A?s lead 1-0. Not a fan of throwing a strike right down the middle unless it?s a 3-2 count tonight? Just not a fan of that 1-1 pitch when it?s lefty lefty . Just my opinion but that pitch Just helps the A?s batters.

 

[byco42]

The only thing that the Tigers have going for them is that the A's are terrible at the plate. #Oops.

 

[lonesometiger]

Tigers biggest failure is letting sub .500 teams beat them. Time to get it done!

 

[biggunsbob]

Tigers 10th

Marisnick on 2nd

Haase 0-2 count . G-3 Haase yet another crappy at bat fails to move runner over.
Short 2-0, 2-1, 3-1, 3-2 count, k?s looking . Swing the bat asshole.
Vierling 3-1 count BB
Torkelson. 0-1 , 0-2. 1-2, 2-2., 3-2 count F-8


Bunting is a part of baseball . Reason the A?s won tonight and the tigers suck
Another embarrassing 1-0 loss for the tigers tonight . Third 1-0 loss of the season.
